Our company is guided by co-founders Felix Schuster and Thomas Tendyck, whose partnership began during their studies at Ruhr University Bochum. Felix, now our CEO, was an early researcher in confidential computing at Microsoft Research in 2015, bringing significant experience and insight to the field. Thomas, having worked as a Research and Development Engineer at a cybersecurity firm in Bochum, contributes strong software development expertise and experience.
"Stating all the reasons why we invested in Edgeless Systems would be too much, so I’ll keep it brief here and limit myself to three: team, product, and market. (...) Confidential computing is the future. Or, as Mark Russinovich, CTO of Microsoft Azure, said at the OC3 conference: “Confidential computing will no longer be a specialty feature but rather the standard for all computing tasks. In this way, the concept of confidential computing will simply become synonymous with computing itself.” (...) Confidential computing will be the new standard for data privacy and, thus, a crucial factor for the digitalization of many industries. This is also reflected in market numbers. While the confidential computing market was valued below $5bn in 2022, it is expected to reach more than $54bn in 2030, growing at a CAGR of 37.7%.
Accordingly, the potential is vast, and Edgeless Systems is best positioned to become a category-defining company in the space of confidential computing. We are super excited to partner with the team and look forward to a bright (and always secure) future."
